We need to make a statement .. if we sell, it should be 1 billion ..

The Daily Star, that bastion of .... I'm struggling.
The thing that strikes me about this offer is how patronising it is. As if Spurs would be bamboozled by the glittery bauble of Bale, and so hoodwinked by it that we'd let go of our biggest asset & best player. It's Real taking us for idiots, and they really should know by now that that's not how Spurs is run. (All that notwithstanding that the story is probably BS to begin with.)
I think as long as the club progresses, Kane stays. But there is a caveat, I do believe that Kane might be convinced otherwise by regression or failure to reach the fullest potential. Probably he'd stay to see the first season of the stadium though!I'm sure Bale would be a marketing dream if he came back but they'd want too much money and no way Kane is leaving Spurs for at least the length of his current contract.
It's utter fiction from the Star.

I understand your disappointment at losing Modric and Bale but I don't think we've been idiots, Chelsea tried to get Modric for £20 million max despite the crap written by the papers and we got £35 million and we then got nigh on £100 million for Bale, both prices way above the norm at the time, we also skinned United for the two players they bought from us this century.We've been idiots when dealing with Madrid before, just like we used to be when dealing with Man Utd
Need to keep Kane at all costs
Buying Bale would banish any thoughts Harry had of leaving though. Would show him we want to challenge City.Or if we could afford to do it, we could use that money to pay and keep Kane instead.
Just a thought.

Why would including Bale in any Kane offer be an incentive for us. We have first refusal on him until summer 2019. Bale is ours if Madrid sell and we want him.
If we don’t put Kane on £200k plus this summer we’ve lost him anyway. Harry wouldn’t mind Bale earning more IMO. The sort of humble guy he is, he’d say the three time CL winner should be a top earner.If we put him on £250k a week too, which we can’t.
I doubt Bale coming in and earning twice the wages of Kane would make Harry stay.
